I have used Steam-A-Seam 2 quite a bit, but like the "Lite" version for bed quilts, or quilts with more layering of the applique. You can buy it off a roll by the yard (I bought the whole box because I do allot!), but you can also buy it in a package with sheets if you don't have tons to applique. I don't throw my scraps of it away, either - I usually can get small pieces for flowers, etc from the scraps. Follow the directions carefully-and I always still finish off the edges either with a blanket stitch or sometimes a machine satin stitch, depending on the style of quilt. Once, I make a wall quilt and didn't finish off the edges and a few pieces started to life at the edges when I hand-quilted it.
